Accelerated Research Masters with Training

Murdoch University, Perth, WA, Australia

About this program

The Accelerated Research Masters with Training is a 12-month research pathway for graduate students who want to expand their knowledge and undertake research in a chosen area. The course takes an interdisciplinary approach, with students working alongside peers to address United Nations Sustainable Development Goals through a dedicated design thinking unit. Students also study research methods and research impact, and work with a supervisory team on a research project in their area of interest. Across the course, students develop high level technical and creative skills to investigate, analyse and synthesise complex information, problems, concepts and theories, apply theories to different bodies of knowledge or practice, plan and execute a substantial research based project, and build theoretical knowledge to critically reflect on theory and professional practice. The Bioplastics Innovation Hub (BIH), a collaborative project between Murdoch University, CSIRO and industry partners, researches and develops compostable bioplastics using organic waste. This includes a Research Masters with Training specialising in Advanced Biomanufacturing, intended to help build the skilled workforce needed for bioplastics production in Australia.
